    Hi
    I have a site with a GeoDirectory listings directory so I have a little experience (a bit rusty).

    That’s all good but I am starting a new site now that initially will have no business directory listings (it will eventually when I get some traffic to it) but from day one I do want to have a separate map showing the towns, places of interest etc where the map markers will link through to my own WordPress pages about the places not linking to GeoDirectory listings.

    I do not want directory listings for specific towns and places appearing under the map.

    I know I could use a different plugin for this but I thought it would be more efficient to use GeoDirectory if possible.

    If this is not possible could you recommend a simple maps plugin?

    I am using GeoDir version 2.0.0.16-rc and WordPress 4.9.8

    I can send you a screen shot of the kind of map I want to achieve if you allow me to send private content.

    Many thanks

    Tia

    GD maps only show listings. To that end, then, a lot of tourism directories add a listing type for points of interest, a free listing, then switch to businesses once they have traffic.

    You can use the private reply option if you want to add screenshots.

    No we don’t have a recommendation for another mapping plugin.

    That looks like points of interest, which could be done with another CPT.

    Those icons can be had here: https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/faqs/where-can-i-find-map-markers/
